DIS Construction Group: Methods of Delay Analysis and Legal Requirements for Substantiation

DIS-Event

Organizer: DIS Construction Group

Delays are a recurring feature of construction disputes, yet proving them remains a complex and often contentious task. This session will examine the legal thresholds for substantiating delay and disruption claims, with a focus on evidentiary standards and the allocation of the burden of proof. Our panel of experts will explore how courts and arbitral tribunals assess different methods of delay analysis, and whether certain techniques are more likely to be accepted or carry greater persuasive weight in dispute resolution proceedings.
